Your pronoun lacks an antecedent. Please clarify your thoughts and try again.

Why did you need to pay the 150.00? Do you have something that came up on your intial background check that you did not disclose? Because I know if you do have something negative on your background check that you did not disclose that can cause you problems! You have to disclose past criminal actives! Even if charges were dropped! I dont know your situtation because you dont really tell what is your issue so it is kinda hard to answer you.
I apologize for not fully disclosing the issues I was speaking of. The school that I will be looking at attending requires you to submit your application to the TXBON prior to attending. I submitted my application with the declaratory statement listing all the infractions that would come up on the required background check along with the personal statement. I even listed some that I was not convicted of but that i would think would show up. DWI 2003, misdemeanor evading 2002, a few article 15s from when i was in the military(which are not considered misdemeanors or felonys). I received a letter a couple of weeks ago requested an additional $150 for it to go to a higher board for them to review my application. What I wanted to know, is if any of you have ever run into or heard of this. I have looked online at the TXBON website that lists the infractions and what is allowed when submitting an application. Does receive a letter from them requesting an additional fee constitute a NO from the board?
Sounds like a Texas-specific issue. Go to the Texas Nursing Programs board (under the "Region" tab) and ask there.
thank you good sir
